Hi dan, First, tanks to take time to share your experiments with us! To date, I've been trough all the docs available on the RFS 3600 (even read the entire owner manual...) and could'nt find one line about the scan speed! How is yours doing? I'm particulary concerned about the max resolution

I am wondering about the math on the diagonal vs horizontal dot pitch conversion. Looks to me like 0.28 diagonal (not 0.26) is closer to 0.22 horizontal. On a 3-4-5 proportioned rectangle, the horizontal is 0.8 * diagonal, so 0.8 * 0.28 = 0.224. Am I missing something? --Berry The
